——[If I'm not mistaken, did this guy just beat up his reflection in the mirror in a fit of rage?]
——[Were the screams just now coming from the mirror?]
——[There's a ghost in the host's house, but the host won't admit it!]
——[Wasn't it supposed to be a teaching session? What am I supposed to learn from this?!!!]
——[See that? A man's competitive spirit is something that even a ghost can't resist.]
The bullet comments in the live broadcast room were refreshing frantically. The viewers were completely stunned by this explosive scene. At the same time, the number of live streaming viewers was also rising rapidly, and waves of new viewers were pouring in. In a short while, the number of viewers reached a full 3000+. This was the first time that there were so many people in Xie Yizhi's live broadcast room since he started live streaming two months ago.
It wasn't just the bullet comments and the number of viewers. Gift special effects were also popping up alternately, which meant that Xie Yizhi's income was increasing accordingly.
——[This is a public welfare live broadcast. Sending gifts is prohibited!]
A viewer who didn't understand the situation posted this bullet comment as a joke. Before he could react, he was kicked out of the live broadcast room by Xie Yizhi. No gifts? Then how was he going to collect enough fragments to get a Rolls-Royce Cullinan?
"I'm satisfied, I've earned a lot." Xie Yizhi said with satisfaction. In just a short while, his gift ranking list had been refreshed. He had received a total of about 2000 yuan in gifts in the background. After deducting the commission, he actually got around 1000 yuan in his pocket. If he had known that beating up that ghostly thing could earn him so much money, he would have done it earlier instead of playing rock-paper-scissors.
But before Xie Yizhi could be happy, a pop-up window appeared in the live broadcast: [Promoting and guiding superstition is prohibited in the live broadcast room. Please conduct a civilized live broadcast...]
Xie Yizhi was stunned for a moment and whispered in complaint, "Sure enough, as soon as the number of people increases, the moderators come sniffing around." Before, the number of viewers in his live broadcast room had always been in double digits. Occasionally, when he was lucky, there could be a few hundred people, and the moderators wouldn't even pass by. But as soon as the number of viewers reached 3000+, the moderators immediately sent him a pop-up window.
Just as he finished speaking, another new pop-up window appeared: [Please conduct a civilized live broadcast, and using uncivilized language is prohibited.]
"Damn it, where was I uncivilized? Are they just looking for trouble?!!"
"Fine... If they want to make trouble, so be it. This feeling of being paid attention to is actually kind of nice." Xie Yizhi forced a smile and blew a kiss to the camera.
The 1000 yuan he just earned hadn't even warmed up in his pocket. If his live broadcast room was shut down and he couldn't withdraw the money from the gifts, it wouldn't be worth it. Anyway, Xie Yizhi had never been someone who was unyielding. As long as he was given enough benefits, that was fine.
——[The host is a bit tough, but not very much.]
——[What a strange man. I can't figure him out, but I kind of like him a little.]
"This live broadcast is all for show. Please don't take it seriously. Spread positive energy, positive energy."
"I'm ending the live broadcast."
After receiving two reminders in a row, Xie Yizhi felt that it would definitely be dangerous if he continued the live broadcast, so he decisively chose to end it. Before the viewers could say anything, Xie Yizhi closed the live broadcast with lightning speed. The remaining viewers were left staring blankly at the blacked-out live broadcast room and Xie Yizhi's profile picture. It was so sudden. He ended the live broadcast in an instant without giving them any warning at all.
——[Is it really just for show? But it was done so well. There's not even a trace of editing.]
——[Brother Xie doesn't seem like someone who can afford to create such effects...]
——[With only 3000 followers, is he really doing something that looks like it's worth millions? It can't be!]
After ending the live broadcast, the viewers' doubts had nothing to do with Xie Yizhi. Let them guess if they wanted to. Whether it was true or false didn't really matter that much. There had to be some topics to generate popularity. After all, Xie Yizhi had been live streaming for two months and knew a bit about the tricks of the trade.
The most urgent thing now was to withdraw the money from the gifts. When it came to money, it was always better to have it safely in hand. After finishing all these things, Xie Yizhi put away his phone, wiped his face with a towel, and was about to leave the bathroom. But as soon as he turned around, he heard a strange "sizz... sizz..." wailing sound. Then he remembered that the ghostly thing in the mirror hadn't been dealt with yet.
He turned around and saw that the ghostly thing had revealed its true form. It had disheveled hair, big dark circles under its eyes, its tongue sticking out, its skin deathly pale, and it was wearing a white robe that hung loosely on it. It was leaning halfway against the mirror. It actually looked quite cute, but it didn't seem to be a ghost from modern times.
If the live broadcast was still going on, those silly viewers would definitely be excited.
"Great opportunity! Qi Baicao, this is the moment!"
"Is she still there? Is the event still going on?"
Xie Yizhi didn't even need to think to know what these people were thinking. When the female ghost saw Xie Yizhi looking at her, her eyes clearly showed panic. Just now, this man had punched her twice, and he was really fierce. This was the first time she had encountered such a situation. Weren't living people supposed to be afraid when they saw her? But this man had an inexplicable fierce look when he was angry, and it scared her so much that she couldn't even move. She regretted coming into this house. She should have just stayed outside.
"Why did you choose to hide in my house? You're just unlucky."
"You don't have much of a fishy smell on you, so I won't kill you." Xie Yizhi said.
When he was very young, his grandmother had told Xie Yizhi that as an undertaker, when she was doing makeup for the corpses, many wandering souls would watch by the side to see what their remains looked like for the last time. So, his grandmother had seen a lot of wandering souls. If someone had been extremely vicious during their lifetime or had committed murderous sins after death and was burned by the fire of karma, then the wandering soul would have a fishy smell. And the female ghost in front of Xie Yizhi didn't have that smell. It seemed that she wasn't very brave either, just naughty and unlucky.
The female ghost nodded repeatedly and put her hands together to beg for mercy.
"However, I can't just let you go like this either." Xie Yizhi looked around and finally fixed his eyes on an empty shampoo bottle on the windowsill.
"???" The female ghost was curious about what Xie Yizhi was going to do. The next moment, she saw him pick up the bottle, rinse it under the faucet, and then stuff her into the bottle. Then he found an old ghost-suppressing talisman that he had practiced with before and pasted it on the bottle. So he was going to seal her up.
But at least he could have found a decent container! Usually, people would use urns or jars! Or at least a vase or something! Who would seal a ghost with a random shampoo bottle?!! And it was a bottle of ginger shampoo! The smell was too strong.
Xie Yizhi looked at the shampoo bottle with satisfaction and nodded. After all, this was a ghost. It wasn't certain whether it would harm people in the future even though it didn't have a bad smell now. Since they had met, it was fate. It was better to seal it up first.
The female ghost: "..." She seemed to have lost all her strength and tricks.
